Flutter CustomScrollView and Scoped model problems - dart

Question

I'm facing some issues quite the time lately. I'm using the scoped_model package for my application. But i'm getting the problem that when i'm searching for stuff or i turn my screen to landscape modus it builds twice.
When this happens i'm getting duplicate json because it is rebuilding twice.
I'm getting another issue when i have searched and i go back my custom scroll view is not working anymore. I can't scroll down anymore.
I have writtin the following files:
main.dart:
class GetRelations extends StatefulWidget {
#override
RelationsPage createState() => RelationsPage();
}
class RelationsPage extends State<GetRelations> {
final RelationScopedModel relationScopedModel = RelationScopedModel();
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
relationScopedModel.initializeValues();
return Scaffold(
body: ScopedModel<RelationScopedModel>(
model: relationScopedModel,
child: Container(
child: SearchScreen(),
),
),
);
}
}
search_screen.dart:
class SearchScreen extends StatefulWidget {
#override
SearchScreenState createState() {
return new SearchScreenState();
}
}
class SearchScreenState extends State<SearchScreen> {
final RelationScopedModel relationScopedModel = RelationScopedModel();
ScrollController controller;
int page = 0;
bool atEnd = false;
#override
void initState() {
super.initState();
controller = new ScrollController()..addListener(_scrollListener);
}
#override
void dispose() {
super.dispose();
controller.dispose();
}
void _scrollListener() {
var props = RelationScopedModel.of(context);
/// When reload we check if skip == 0, if skip is 0 then page has to become 0 too.
if (props.skip == 0) {
page = 0;
}
/// Checking if user is at the end of the screen, then let's receive some new content.
if (controller.position.pixels == controller.position.maxScrollExtent) {
/// If it is at the end, we have to set atEnd to true.
if (props.atTheEnd == true) {
atEnd = props.atTheEnd;
return;
}
/// If it has no more pages, return.
if (props.hasMorePages == false) {
return;
}
/// If it is has more stuff, load it in!
if (!props.isLoadingMore && props.hasMorePages) {
page++;
props.getRelations(props.search, page);
}
}
}
#override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
/// Go back to last page by using WillPopScope.
return WillPopScope(
onWillPop: () {
Navigator.pop(context);
},
child: new Scaffold(
drawer: new DrawerOnly(),

I'm guessing that the problem is that my scopedmodeldescendant isn't in the init state. But i'm not sure and i hope somebody knows what the problem is with this code.
Thanks in advance
Greetings,

UPDATE:
I got my customscrollview is working when i set atTheEnd to false and hasMorePages to true in my relation_scoped_model at initializeValues().
The only problem i'm still facing is that i'm getting duplicates, which happens because my screen is rebuilding twice.

Answer 1

When using scoped model, you should wrap the widgets that should respond to changes one by one with scoped model descendants. This way only those widgets can rebuild rather than the whole page rebuilding.
